Without Him.

Chapter 17

ZWIDE POV

Seeing how disappointed Naledi looked last night, fucked with me. I need to make things right between my brothers.

I drove back to the mansion leaving Naledi sound asleep.

ZANA:Ufunani la wena?(What do you want here? )

ZWIDE: Zana...ngiyaxolisa I shouldn't...(I'm sorry)

ZANA: You shouldn't have done that but you did.

ZWIDE: I'll do anything to show you how sorry I am.

ZANA: I want nothing, I just want to undo what you did yesterday.

ZWIDE: That's too bad,my bank card really needed to be stretched out but heyy...

ZANA: Oh no that'll do.
She said placing her hand out.

I reached into my pocket ,took out my wallet and handed her my card. She squealed and ran out the house.

ZWIDE: I love you!

ZANA: I love you too stupid ass!

HLENGIWE: Where is she going?

ZWIDE: Shopping.

HLENGIWE: I told that girl not to spend all her money at once buga manje!( Look now.)

ZWIDE: Khululeka ma, yimali yami.(Relax ma,it's my money.)

HLENGIWE: Okay...we need to talk about your coronation ceremony.

ZWIDE: Will Bheki be there?

HLENGIWE: Ntsika will be there.

ZWIDE: Angibuzanga ngoNtsika.(I didn't ask about Ntsika. )

HLENGIWE: Ndodana, he's your father.

ZWIDE: I'm my own father . I don't want him there.

HLENGIWE: Godongwana.

ZWIDE: Ngizoba yinkosi.( I'm going to be king.)

HLENGIWE: I'm still going to be your mother.

ZWIDE: I know but you'll need to start treating me ..

HLENGIWE: YOU need to start Naledi the way she deserves to be treated.
Nkosana walks in with his wife Ntombizodwa.

NKOSANA: Ma.
He said hugging our mother.

NTOMBI:Sauwbona ma.( Hello ma)
My mother side hugged her. She had a bruise on her neck and eye. Clearly Nkosana has been physically with her.

NKOSANA: Bafo.

ZWIDE:Ngane kama.(My mother's child.)

NKOSANA: Can we talk.

HLENGIWE: Ehh Ntombi ashambe Nana.
The two ladies left the living room.

ZWIDE: What we did was inconsiderate to uNkosazana. We could've handled the situation better.

NKOSANA: Inkinga iwukuthi, uyashesha ukuphonsa izandla.( Problem is ,you're too quick to throw hands.

ZWIDE: Inkinga yakho, unomlomo omkhulu. Ungaphinde ukhulume ngomfazi wami.( Your problem is ,you have a big mouth. Don't ever talk about my woman again. )

NKOSANA: Stop being sensitive like a little bitch. You took what's mine. We all know that leso sihlalo sobukhosi senzelwe mina.(throne is meant for me.)

ZWIDE: Oh come on. Mandandwe would collapse right before our eyes.  You're too sensitive and self centered to think for anyone but yourself.

NKOSANA: Alright little bro. You take what's mine ,I'll take what's yours.

ZWIDE: Try me.
